Thisadministrative arrangement is the result of an earlier merger of a Department of Mechanical andAerospace Engineering with an Engineering Science Department (which included the BMEoption programs). The proposal to substantially advance BME has presented new aspects ofcompetition with the other programs of the MABE Department. Foremost among these is thecompetition to fill open faculty positions in the interest areas of current faculty.

Such studies help researchers andpractitioners create a meaningful learning experience for students across various disciplineswhere metacognitive skills (self-regulation) are required as part of the workforce.A significant contrast exists in the teaching and learning approaches used in STEM educationcompared to non-STEM disciplines and in the activities in which students are involved.
